![[Linked Image]](http://i423.photobucket.com/albums/pp311/patrickgsinclair/scan0011-1.jpg) One of my favorites...My cousin comes out and we hunt antelope every year. This is his buck from 2 years ago, taken with his 7MM Dakota. This was also a 500+ meter shot. He shoots 168gr Berger VLD's. That setup is an absolute hammer!!

That setup is an absolute hammer!! Now that to me is one cool pic! For me there's something about hunting critters in the snow and lopes/yotes and bruins are some of my fav. And Skane you're spot on.

I think Pat should be required to post a cull on occasion.

All bullets have a trajectory no matter how they are zeroed....if you zero at 100 yards,you are "under" the crosshairs at some distances and "over" them at others.If there is no time to click up or down you are "guessing"This is hunting;not banging steal gongs. Or shooting varmints like woodchucks and coyotes. Common sense should prevail; if you hunt varmints, change up; I don't zero a varmint rifle like a Swift the same way.Anyone with half a brain gets that....cripes.... In some places game animals are stupid and common. There is all kinds of time for any bizarre zero you choose to use, and make adjustments. In other places a trophy mule deer or whitetail is completely aware of you at common distances to 300 yards, and do not generally stand around while you dick with extraneous gear. I LMAO when I hear MPBR is not "precise enough"....  this demonstrates lack of experience.

![[Linked Image]](http://i423.photobucket.com/albums/pp311/patrickgsinclair/scan0014-10.jpg) Another one for the pot.... Someone told me a long time ago that any elk is a good trophy...gotta agree with that when I'm grilling up some backstrap!!

That turret stuff sure looks tricky, no wonder the velcro sneaker crowd have such a difficult time with it.

I love turrets, though admittedly I've only kill one deer after twisting turrets. (shot a deer out of it's bed, after twisting a whopping 6 clicks)
Perhaps this year I'll do a little bit more twisting on game.
